The IxProtectorate of Outer Daviston is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Ike Davis with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.774 billion Outer Davistonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ikestown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Outer Davistonian economy, worth 303 trillion Buckoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,151 Buckoes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 348,277 per year while the poor average 26,005, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.

A PhD just ain't what it used to be, black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, a positive pregnancy test doubles as a visa, and beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outer Daviston's national animal is the Buckaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Valley Feverism.

Outer Daviston is ranked 284,771^st in the world and 2^nd in Baseball for Most Secular, with 9.17 Atheism Rate.
